In the past few months, I've had some amazing feedback from you all about Fireweed! I've had a really fun time helping customers at the shop pick out their colors, and I've been hankering to knit myself another one. And then I figured, why not knit it together with you lovely folks? I'll write a bit about choosing colors and working the different techniques from the shawl, it will be super chill, and we'll have some fun prizes of yarn and patterns to sweeten the deal!
So on that note, I'm excited to announce the Fireweed Knitalong!
The pattern is available digitally in my Ravelry store, and also in print - ta-da! - at a few lovely retailers in Seattle and elsewhere:
The Fiber Gallery in Seattle, WA
The Tea Cozy in Seattle, WA
The Knot House in Frederick, MD
Fuzzy Goat in Thomasville, GA
Spincycle Yarns - available as a kit, online or in person
Annnnd if you haven't had a chance to get your hot little hands on some Dyed in the Wool, this is a great opportunity. Kate and Rachel's fabulous wares - colorful, squishy, and made in the US from sheep to skein - are available both on their website and from select retailers around the US and beyond.
ETA: Here's a few Spincycle sources who are also Fireweed-friendly!
Serial Knitters in Kirkland, WA
Art of Yarn in Kelowna, BC
So how 'bout those nitty-gritty details?
